"Yolie" Roth the "Twitter Fact-checker" Claimed Trump Admin Are ‘ACTUAL NAZIS’

The Twitter official responsible for the platform’s fact-checking policy has tweeted that members of the Trump administration are “Nazis,” among other false and inflammatory statements on the platform.
Yoel Roth, whose official job title is “Head of Site Integrity,” explained the platform’s new policy in a May 11 blog post on “misleading information” on coronavirus.
“In serving the public conversation, our goal is to make it easy to find credible information on Twitter and to limit the spread of potentially harmful and misleading content,” he said.
Twitter appears to have applied that policy to a broader category of assertions, moving beyond COVID-19 to President Donald Trump’s claim on Tuesday that vote-by-mail would lead to more voter fraud — a prediction with which even some Democrats have agreed.
Subsequently, Twitter slapped a “get the facts” label on Trump’s tweets about voter fraud — and provided links to CNN and the Washington Post, two avowedly anti-Trump outlets that enthusiastically pushed the Russia collusion hoax.
Critics on Twitter, ironically, pointed out that Roth’s own tweets include exactly the kind of misleading and abusive content that Twitter’s policy purports to limit.
Roth has also defended his use of the homophobic slur “fag” on the Twitter platform:
As Breitbart News’ Allum Bokhari reported, Tuesday’s intervention is believed to be the first time that the company has used a fact-checking label on one of Trump’s tweets. It is not clear why Twitter chose a tweet about voting by mail.

Kathy Griffin "The Freak" suggests Trump should take syringe with 'nothing but air'

Kathy Griffin was called out on Twitter Tuesday after suggesting that President Trump should take an empty syringe "with nothing but air."
As first reported by the Washington Examiner, Griffin had a graphic response to remarks President Trump made at a White House event dedicated to seniors suffering from diabetes, where he jokingly asked if he should be on "insulin."
"Syringe with nothing but air inside it would do the trick. F--- TRUMP," the comedian reacted.
The Examiner pointed out that "in medical procedures, air accidentally injected into the body's bloodstream through syringes or IVs can cause air embolisms, which can be fatal."
Griffin later doubled down on her tweet, responding to a tweet from the Examiner that noted that the injection of an air-filled syringe could be "fatal."
"I SURE DID, F---ER. #TrumpLiedPeopleDied," Griffin wrote.
A representative for Twitter told the Examiner the platform will "look into" Griffin's tweets as to whether or not they violate the company's terms and policies.
The former "My Life on the D-List" star sparked a firestorm of controversy in 2017 when she posed with a prop severed head of the president during the photo shoot, which resulted in losing her gig as a CNN host during the network's annual New Year's Eve special as well as numerous endorsements and canceled shows. She was also investigated by the Secret Service.
After initially apologizing, Griffin stood by her ISIS-inspired photo shoot and has since launched multiple projects inspired by the experience including a comedy tour and a documentary.

It's Going to be all Right ....Indian Priest Has the cure for Covid-19




Finding a coronavirus cure?...I’m up to my neck in it! 

Priest buries himself up to his head and surrounds himself with fire in eight-hour ritual to end the pandemic


A priest in India has taken an unorthodox approach to fighting the coronavirus pandemic. 
Srinivasa Siddhar from the southern state of Tamil Nadu buried himself neck-deep in mud and surrounded himself with fire with hopes of putting a stop to the global health crisis. 
The priest proved his dedication to eradicating the virus as he stayed buried in the mud for an incredible eight hours. 
The incident, which took place in the Pratyangra Devi temple in Thoothukudi, was caught on camera. 
The video shows the priest burying his body neck-deep in mud, while leaving just his head visible. 
Siddhar can be heard chanting prayers in the video. 
He was surrounded by a ring of fire which emitted clouds of black smoke. 
The ritual, known as 'Dawa Puja', took place on May 22.  
'Puja' is a worship or ritual performed by Hindis and Buddhists to offer homage and prayer to one or more deities or to spiritually celebrate an event.

The Frum Dog That Wouldn't Trim His Beard During Sefirah


A Shih Tzu with a beard, any self-certifying hipster would be proud of is the talk of his local town - and looks remarkably like his owner thanks to their love of the hirsute look.
Pooch Max, from Utah, who is eight-years-old, has his caramel-coloured 'beard' trimmed and shaped every six weeks in a bid to keep it in pristine condition.
The long-haired Shih Tzu simply has to keep the rest of his coat trimmed short to make it appear as if the tiny pet has a lustrous beard.  
Owners, Candice, 37, and Cody Hopkins, 42, say that Max is a mini celebrity in their local area - and can't go 'walkies' without being stopped for photographs from fascinated fellow dog fans. 

Max's human dad, Cody, is also a fan of the bearded look - proving the old adage that dogs often look like they're owners. 
Indeed, the family are often told that Max's beard is in fact more lustrous than Cody's. 
Max's fellow owner, Candice, a mother-of-three, said: 'Max is often told that he has a better beard than Cody.
'It's hilarious how well Max pulls of his long beard and we get him groomed every six weeks to ensure it stays a good shape at all times.
'On our daily walks we are stopped by strangers who want to pose up next to Max and have their photos taken.'
She admits: 'I guess it's not every day that you see a dog with a beard.'

For the 'Shtissel Brothers,' life begins at 70



The coronavirus pandemic may have boxed "seniors" age 60 and over as a high-risk group, but at least two of that group's members are feeling more alive than ever.
Unlike many of their peers in retirement, actors Dov Glickman and Sasson Gabai time isn't spent solely pursuing hobbies or playing with their grandchildren. The two are enjoying the type of professional boom actors half their age can only dream about, and are starring in hit shows and plays in Israel and the US.
"I want to enjoy what's left," says Gabai, 72. "I want to do more and more, as much as I can. I have absolutely no intention of slowing down, on the contrary, I'm speeding up."
"I feel I'm getting younger by the day," adds Glickman, 70. "Scientifically, a person is considered old when he begins driving below the speed limit. Seriously, I checked it out with my niece, who researches aging. Well, I'm not there yet. Professionally, this is the best period in my entire acting career. Without a doubt. I'm working on excellent materials, with great partners and great writers and directors."

First-grader finds priceless 3,500-year-old artifact

A six-year-old boy made the discovery of a lifetime after unearthing a rare artifact thought to be more than 3,500 years old.
Last March, while touring the northern Negev archaeological site of Kibbutz Re'im in Tel Jemmeh, six-year-old Imri Elya stumbled upon a small, square clay object with two figures engraved on it.
Curious about the discovery, Elya's parents decided to send it to the Israel Antiquities Authority and the National Treasures Department for more answers. After photographing and documenting the artifact, archaeologists were surprised to realize that this was an extremely rare find.
According to the IAA, the object is a clay tablet depicting a captor leading a naked and humiliated prisoner, dated to the Late Bronze Age between the 12th and 15th centuries BCE.

Zionist lab finds 2 drugs for Gaucher’s disease that also fight COVID-19

The Defense Ministry-run Institute for Biological Research has found two drugs used to treat a genetic disorder known as Gaucher’s disease are also effective against the coronavirus and potentially other viruses as well, the laboratory announced Tuesday.
As one of these drugs — Cerdelga — has already been approved for use by the US Food and Drug Administration and the second — Venglustat — has almost completed the approval process, they may be fast-tracked for use with COVID-19 patients, the Defense Ministry said.
In the proposed antiviral treatment, the two drugs would be taken together.
“The two drugs under development are currently being tested for their effectiveness in treating animals infected with the coronavirus,” the ministry said.
The defense laboratory, which is based in Ness Ziona, has already published the results of a study of the treatment on mice, though the article has yet to be peer-reviewed.
The study on mice found that the medications inhibited the replication of the viruses in the bodies of the infected animals.
In addition to being effective against the coronavirus, the treatment was also found to work against three other viruses, Neuroinvasive Sindbis virus, West Nile virus and Influenza A virus, the researchers wrote.
“This indicates their potential in treating various viral diseases effectively — including future outbreaks of new viruses — once they are clinically approved,” the ministry wrote.
